Surgical post-op dressing

Mepilex Border Post-Op

Mepilex® Border Post-Op dressing is extra-conformable and easy to use for surgical wounds, cuts and abrasions. It's self-adherent, thanks to Safetac® – the original less-pain contact layer with silicone adhesion. It's designed to mould softly to skin without sticking to the moist wound, so you can remove it easily without damaging the skin.

The absorbent pad has Flex technology for extra flexibility – so you can rely on it for dressing surgical incisions on joints such as hips and knees – to support early patient mobility. The design is highly absorbent, to reduce dressing change frequency.

You can use Mepilex Border Post-Op for exuding acute wounds such as surgical wounds, cuts and abrasions. The design is specifically suited to post-op use for surgical wounds and blood absorption. The Flex technology makes it very conformable – ideal for surgical wounds over joints such as hips and knees.

Frequency of change

You can leave Mepilex Border Post-Op in place for up to seven days, depending on the condition of your patient’s wound and the surrounding skin; or as indicated by your organizational procedures or accepted clinical practice.
